Duffield Supporters, we must keep the pressure on! We need to show the strength of our power and commitment to preserve this historic residence— we can’t let demolition go through now. You can help by calling the LPC & your local electeds TODAY to make sure they know you won’t stand for the erasure of abolition, resistance, and the fight for freedom.

Methods to contact Lisa Kersavage and the LPC are below (phone, tweet, email):

LPC Phone: 212-669-7817  

Phone Script: 

• Please do not demolish 227 Duffield Street, located in Downtown Brooklyn. 
• We need to landmark 227 Duffield, because it is well-documented that it was prominent in the abolitionist movement and likely a stop on the Underground Railroad. 
• We strongly believe that 227 Duffield needs to be turned into a museum to preserve this historic contribution to the fight against enslavement and racism in the US.
